Rick and Morty

This show is fun.

Funniest episode, Raising Gazorpazorp.

Close Rick-counters of the Rick Kind is making me look forward to new unexpected tropes.

The worst thing...is not energy depletion, economic collapse, conventional war, or the expansion of totalitarian governments. As terrible as these catastrophes would be for us, they can be repaired in a few generations. The one process now going on that will take millions of years to correct is loss of genetic and species diversity by the destruction of natural habitats. This is the folly our descendants are least likely to forgive us.--e.o. wilson

Re: Rick and Morty

Can't wait for season 2. Too bad you don't like cartoons, Pat.

Re: Rick and Morty

^ I guess that bit around 6.00 is a commentary on the 'middle-east conflict'.

The Zardoz allusion shortly thereafter clinched Ricky and Morty's total coolness for me.

Re: Rick and Morty

Couldn't find your discussion with the janky search function, but this is the last thing I said about it:

Man, there's soooo much awesomely weird shit in Zardoz. I love the imagery, the dialogue, the cheesy dystopianism and the bizarre boner scene. It's way better than bad.

Rick and Morty's allusions to Cronenberg are also cool.

Oooh

There's a boner scene? I guess Zardoz was back in the heady Liberation days when a top-rating actor like Alan Bates goes fully nude on screen and gay was getting into fashion just like "boy-love" and English academics were funding the Pedophile Information Exchange.

yes you're right. It's worse than janky. It can't even be bothered to search for words like 'Pat' because it's too short or 'common'.

Me and belamo were discussing Zardoz because it introduced Beethovens wonderful 'Dance Symphony' to the masses. (It was another of our discussions talking about Pop Culture is murdering Real Culture.)

Re: Rick and Morty

Of course! But I'll re-watch on AdultSwim to see if there were any changes, support, enjoy.

Episode 1 picks up after the party, and episode 2 is about a beautiful queef.

Re: Rick and Morty

Everyone loves the new episode, but I found it from entertaining to a bit boring, to be honest.

I was rather blase about the Season 2 premier last time.

But I thought this episode was amaze balls.

And fucking Tammy, too.

Re: Rick and Morty

Fuck Tammy.

Also the last scene was indeed fucking brutal. Up to now, it seemed Rick was just talking shit when he said he doesnīt care about the kids, though it was just a facade since he was somehow there for them, but after the end of this episode, I have my doubts. Heīs just insane.

Re: Rick and Morty

Or maybe it's the aftereffects of the brainalyzer?

Actually, I think he's sort of episodic, drifting between moments of caring, and moments of pure desire for szechuan sauce.

Re: Rick and Morty

I guess we have to wait for the rest of the season this summer. It would be really fucked up for them to continue it like the first episode didnīt happen, since it somehow was an Aprilīs Fool.

It does seem somewhat unlikely that both the Council of Ricks and the Intergalactic Government could be destroyed, but anything's possible.

Re: Rick and Morty

I hear it isFantastically funny, yet deep, allegorical, political. It's as deep as the patience and time you can give it. Very multilayered.

Well, you know what a paragon of taste I am.

It has lots of fart jokes, too.
